The film is set in 1945, when Paul Sutton, a World War II veteran returns home, he accidentally meets Victoria Aragon, a Stanford student who belongs to a Mexican-descent family which owns a vineyard in Napa Valley, California. As she is pregnant by her professor, Paul offers to introduce himself to the very traditionalist family – especially her raging father Alberto – and leave the day after. Instead, he stays one day more – supposedly for the grape harvest – and more, until they eventually fall in love.
